Hi all, just part-way through my trip to Indonesia.

Thought I'd take the opportunity to post some pics.

C&C welcomed as always. I'm not sure if I should turn the last one into B&W.

Some great shots there, Baboo. 2 &4 and the last one are my favourites. Especially the tuk tuk rider and the last one. Well done!

The tuk rider is a really powerful image - well captured. Reminds me of the style similar to Juztin's

I thought Merapi was off limits due to an imminent eruption?
In Indonesia Tuk Tuks are called Becaks

Thanks guys.

Ivanerrol, I was lucky, I climbed Mt. Merapi last weekend and we reached the summit early Sunday morning. It was after that, on the Monday I think that they closed off Merapi to climbers. Up until then, it was at stage 2 (I think) which was basically a warning.

G'day Ray,

Looks like you're having a ball! Some terrific shots in this series, but #2 makes me feel as though I'm there and #4 has such a mystic feel to it... Great images!

Hello Baboo,

Lucky in some ways you weren't around to see some fireworks at first hand and up close.

Does you posting name bear any reference to the Indonesian word of Baboo??
